Gstreamer not playing videos in weston/wayland

[sudipj]

You can try some weston-apps like weston-terminal, weston-flower etc.. If
they run succesfully, then the pipeline should work.

However, I have faced this issue multiple times on my target when
connecting videotestsrc ! waylandsink even though videotestsrc can produce
formats acceptable to waylandsink. I didn't investigated much as
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! waylandsink resolves. May be
its worth giving a simple try. And then you could share the results
